The Otherworldly God

Chapter 322

Le Zheng Qiming stood in front of Mu Xin's door, feeling uneasy. He hesitated for a long time, but finally mustered up the courage to knock on the door. The door opened almost the moment he touched it, as if the people inside had already anticipated his arrival.

"come in."

Le Zheng Yuhua's voice came, sounding calm and composed.

When Le Zheng Qiming saw that it was him, he became even more nervous, "Senior brother is here too, I'll be there later."

Le Zheng Qiming nervously tried to escape but was grabbed by Le Zheng Yuhua.

"you've been drinking?"

Le Zheng Yuhua frowned slightly and used magic to tidy up his messy clothes and hair.

"I did drink, but I'm fine now."

He tried to escape again, but Le Zheng Yuhua pulled him back again. Le Zheng Qiming tried to break free, but Le Zheng Yuhua's grip was surprisingly strong.

"If you don't want me to be here, I'll leave."

After saying that, Le Zheng Yuhua came out, as if letting him go in while she left.

Le Zheng Qiming suddenly realized something and turned around to ask, "Wait...wait a minute, is my sister-in-law the only one in there?"

Le Zheng Yuhua nodded and replied: "Your sister-in-law is resting inside."

"Then forget it."

When Le Zheng Qiming heard this, an embarrassed look appeared on his face. He turned around and was about to leave, but was stopped by him again.

"Come in, your sister-in-law knows you're here, just say hello."

"You know? This sister-in-law is resting, and you're not here, so I go in... Isn't this inappropriate? Forget it."

Le Zheng Qiming made a bitter face and tried to find a reason to refuse.

"You don't like me being here, and you have something to say to your sister-in-law in private, so go in without worries."

"No... no." Le Zheng Qiming hesitated, not knowing how to explain, so he could only hold his arm, "It's not that I don't like it, I just feel... I want to do it secretly... But I still think it's better for you to be here, it's really inappropriate for a man and a woman to be alone, and she's my sister-in-law."

Le Zheng Yuhua smiled and asked, "You don't blame us for keeping it a secret from you?"

Le Zheng Qiming's face darkened, "Can we talk about this later?"

"Then go in."

Le Zheng Yuhua seemed to be blocking his way of retreat, so Le Zheng Qiming had no choice but to go in.

The room was quiet, with only the sound of Mu Xin's gentle breathing.

He walked to the side carefully, wanting to reach out and pat her shoulder, but hesitated and didn't do it. He just greeted her softly: "Sister-in-law, I...I came to see you."

Le Zheng Yuhua could see that he was really uncomfortable, so she just smiled slightly and didn't get involved. She walked to the table, set the glasses and poured some water.

Mu Xin, who was sitting on the recliner, slowly opened her eyes and saw Le Zheng Qiming. A gentle smile appeared on her face: "It's Qiming, it's good that you're here. Don't stand, sit down."

Le Zheng Qiming smiled awkwardly, walked to the table and sat down, but felt like sitting on pins and needles.

Le Zheng Yuhua put the cup in front of him, and he looked up at Le Zheng Yuhua, only to see Le Zheng Yuhua smiling at him with encouragement in her eyes. He was moved and finally put aside his worries.

"Actually...actually I came here for..." Le Zheng Qiming spoke hesitantly, but didn't know how to start.

"It was indeed inappropriate for us to hide this from you. Please do not blame or resent your brother. He actually did not want to do this. I hope you can understand his difficulties and do not bear a grudge against him because of this. After all, we are all brothers from the same sect. We grew up together and went through life and death together. As for us, it doesn't matter. If you want to blame or resent, just target us."

Le Zheng Qiming stood up in a flash and said hastily, "You hid it from me, I... I do feel a little uncomfortable. But I also know that you must have your own difficulties. But knowing is knowing, and I hope you can understand it for a while."

After hearing this, Mu Xin smiled kindly and expressed her understanding.

"You came to me, didn't you, to talk about this?"

Le Zheng Qiming frowned tightly, hesitating and not knowing how to start. He could only gulp down a glass of water before slowly saying, "I know this matter is not easy to handle, but apart from sister-in-law, I really can't think of anyone else who can help me." Le Zheng Qiming took a deep breath, mustered up the courage to continue, "Sister-in-law, I want to ask you for a favor. This matter is very important to me. I want... I want to see the truth."

Mu Xin held the cup, and Le Zheng Yuhua lowered her head and looked at the cup. She had no intention of intervening in their conversation, but she knew in her heart that this matter would be difficult, and she didn't want Mu Xin to take any risks.

"You mean... you want to go back in time and see the truth about the child swap with your own eyes?"

"I'm not sure if this can be accomplished. Even if it can, I know it will be difficult. But I feel like I have just been born and I have no idea what's going on. I don't want to live for someone else for no reason, even if that person is Shui Ling."

"Did they tell you about Shui Ling's life story?"

Le Zheng Qiming paused, as if he shouldn't know this secret, but he had to tell him because he was forced to do so.

"Ah."

"Did I also tell you Le Ying's secret?"

"Yes, yes. If you want to blame someone, blame me. I was too excited and said some harsh words, and she couldn't stand it..."

Mu Xin stood with her back to him the whole time, holding the edge of the cup with her hands, turning it back and forth. Her expression was very serious at the moment.

Mu Xin was silent for a moment. She turned around and faced Le Zheng Qiming with a heavy look on her face.

"Qiming, you have to know that going back to the past is not an easy task. Even if we have the ability, we may not succeed, and the risks are huge. More importantly, even if you really see the truth, what can you do? Changing the past does not mean changing the present, and it may even bring more unpredictable consequences."

Le Zheng Qiming immediately waved his hands and explained: "Sister-in-law, you misunderstood me. I have never thought of changing the past. I am very satisfied with my current brothers and sisters. I just want to see it with my own eyes."

"Even so, it may not be a good thing. Sometimes it is better for everyone to be vague about some things than to have to understand them clearly."

Le Zheng Qiming took a deep breath, unwilling to be persuaded to change his mind.

"I've thought about it a long time ago. But for me, this truth is like a stone pressing on my heart, making it hard for me to breathe. I must see it with my own eyes, even if it's just a glance... I'm willing to bear any consequences."

Le Zheng Qiming said firmly, his eyes full of determination.

Mu Xin looked at him, with a complex emotion in her eyes. She knew that Le Zheng Qiming was not pursuing the truth about the child swap, and she also knew that Le Zhengzhi and Bai Zhi probably didn't want him to know, but Mu Xin couldn't understand the reason very well.

"Okay, Qi Ming. Since you have made up your mind, I will help you with this."

Mu Xin finally nodded and decided to help him.
